1965 Ford Falcon on 2040-cars

Chesapeake, Virginia, United States

1965 Ford Falcon Miles 102,860 I purchased this car about a year ago from an older gentleman in Georgia just as you see it. He had done quite a bit of work to it until medical problems shut him down. My intentions were to build it into the first car I ever owned which was a 1964 Futura V8 4 speed bench seat, blue on blue. A motorcycle wreck has changed my plans as well. I do not want this car just sitting for another year or two while I recover from back surgery, it’s had too much work and too nice to sit and start deteriorating. About the car, it runs great and drives well also. When I purchased the car it had up to date tags and insurance certificate so he must have been driving it on a regular basis. Most of the body work has been done; there are still a few areas that need to be taken care of but nothing major. For a 50 year old car it is in great shape with no major rot. The following information is from documentation he sent with the car that was performed in 2011 – 2012 by different shops and him: Installed rebuilt 5.0 roller engine - Installed rebuilt C4 transmission - New transmission crossmember - New gas tank and fuel lines - New wiring harness - Keyless remote doors and trunk - Install Hurst Shifter - Install new exhaust system - New electric fuel pump - New radiator New Edelbrock 4bbl carburetor – New aluminum intake manifold – New starter, started solenoid, alternator, distributor, wires and plugs – New motor mounts – New air shocks on rear – All new hoses and engine fan – All new rear brakes, drums and cylinders – New drive shaft and u-joints. It looks like front end work has been performed by the look of the tie rod ends and such. Trunk and engine compartment have prepped and painted. The car has 4 new 175/70R/14 tires mounted on the newer style Magnum 500 wheels with the trim ring. Body lines are laser straight that I have tried to illustrate in the pictures. All windows roll up and down as supposed to and the interior is fairly new. I have quite a few spare/needed parts pictured. The good thing about parts for the 64-65 Falcon, this was the platform the 64-65 Mustang originated. Other than the obvious body panels/glass etc. all of the chassis parts, engine compartment, window, door and interior parts are interchangeable. I will post pictures of all extra/spare parts I have that go with the car in the next few days. In this description I have tried to illustrate the car to the best of my knowledge. Like I have said most of the work has been done there is still a bit to go but it won’t take much to make a nice little hot rod out of this car. There is no warranty offered or implied with this vehicle and I reserve the right to end the auction early because I have the car for sale here locally. Thank you for taking the time to look at this ad. Please contact me with any questions you may have. Mike

Bill Ford wins National Pond Hockey Championship with employees

Tue, 11 Feb 2014

Who says executives aren't people? This past weekend, Bill Ford, executive chairman of Ford Motor Company, and a group of employees trekked up to Eagle River, WI for a few games of pond hockey. Team Ford took part in the 2014 Labatt Blue/USA Pond Hockey Championship, capturing its fifth title in the 50+ Tier 1 Division.
"It feels great to win," Ford, who plays on the team alongside other Ford employees, told the USA Hockey website. "It was fun to play [River Valley Pioneers] because they're great guys and we play them every year. We finally beat them, which we were due. It was a very clean game, a tough game."
The FoMoCo team managed to score seven goals to River Valley's two, and went undefeated in all five of its games during the tourney. Take a look below for the official press release on Team Ford's win.

Ford tells Congress it collects and protects some driver data

Fri, 14 Feb 2014

Last month Ford's Jim Farley made waves at the CES when it was reported he told show attendees, "We have GPS in your car, so we know what you're doing. By the way, we don't supply that data to anyone." Farley and Ford later partially retracted and clarified that statement.
Spurred by a desire for further transparency on data collection policies, Ford representatives answered questions from Congress, specifically Senator Al Franken (D-Minn.), about driver privacy.
The Detroit News reports that Ford told Congress it does collect some vehicle location data in an effort to "troubleshoot and improve our products" on behalf of the driver. Ford went on to say that it only collects limited data after receiving permission from owners.

Ford Mustang SVT caught looking fierce on the 'Ring

Tue, 15 Jul 2014

The next-generation Ford Mustang SVT is one of the most anticipated performance cars of the moment. We've already seen it testing multiple times, but it has always been covered is some very heavy camouflage. However, Ford has just given us our best view yet of the new muscle car. According to our spy photographer, the Mustang was at the Nürburgring for high-speed testing, which meant that the Blue Oval had to remove most of the heavy obfuscation that the SVT has worn previously.
The stylish, more revealing camo makes picking out some of the more interesting details about the SVT rather easy. Starting from the front, there is the big hood scoop to feed cold air to its still mysterious engine. You can also immediately make out the model's new grille and lower front air dam. It has a vertical piece running from the bottom of the hood all the way to the ground. The aggressive styling almost gives the 'Stang the look of two fangs ready to bite down. The hood seam is even taped off here, which shows us its outline.
Around the side, it appears that the front and rear fenders are wider than stock, and the sills are certainly much larger. You can also just make out the SVT's bigger brakes behind its black wheels with a polished lip. Finally, at the rear, things appear mostly stock other than the diffuser that the exhaust outlets nestle into.
